    Worst experience ever. Astounding lack of communication. Reached out in June/July for landscaping project for our tiny front lawn. Did not start planting until mid October. Sent photos for what we wanted and we were ignored throughout the entire process. End result is passable at best. Not worth the money, go elsewhere.

    It's winter and I was facing a blizzard of epic proportions (or so the weather guys warned me). So who can you rely on to get rid of all that snow? Try Narrow Lane. It's easy to love Narrow Lane in the spring, summer and fall ... the grass is green...the flowers are blooming ... the leaves are multi-colored ... and the Narrow Lane team is taking care of it all. But what about the winter, when you are facing 2-3 feet of snow and the landscape is miserable? That's when the pros come out, starting with a written plan e-mailed to you in advance of a huge blizzard, telling you what you can expect! Who does that? I have never experienced such responsive customer service! And then, the team came out ... twice ...as promised ... during the great blizzard of 2015, and did exactly what they had said they would do ... well, great customer service like that is rare, indeed, these days. So, I just had to share my experience. And encourage you to get in line for your great experience. Marijo

    Professional from beginning to end. Had all equipment and friendly workers who worked hard. Always available and did a great job.

    Response from Company:

    Thank you! Many of our clients have us design their new landscaping, install landscape lighting, stone work and plantings, and then maintain the property for them - let us come work for you!

    Narrow Lane does a great job at everything they do including stone work, landscaping and lawn care, I recommend them highly.

    Response from Company:

    Thank you! At The Narrow Lane we pride ourselves in the beautiful stone work (patios, walls, driveways) that we get to install for our clients. What a pleasure working for you!

    Ron & Dave did a great job, communicated very well and paid attention to detail. Excellent value and timely service.

    Our house had zero curb appeal - overgrown bushes, narrow path, no obvious way to get to the back yard, retaining walls in disrepair, lawn that had more weeds than grass and a driveway that needed replacement. Ron Goode from The Narrow Lane designed a great landscape listening to addressing every concern my wife and I had. At this writing, it has been about 5 months since he finished, and we are still getting compliments on how great the yard looks. Ron is quick to address concerns, gives fair prices, works diligently to ensure you are happy with the project and takes changes in stride! I highly recommend The Narrow Lane!

    Ron Goode and his Narrow Lane team were outstanding from start to finish. Ron was extremely thorough with his initial estimate, worked well with us to alter the scope of work as needed, and installed a complicated driveway on time. Their work was extremely detail oriented and Ron provided daily updates via email which proved very helpful so we always knew what they completed that day and what their plan was to finish the project. Ron's business partner Dave was also very knowledgeable, easy going, and he too went the extra mile throughout the entire process to make sure the driveway turned out great. I highly recommend The Narrow Lane Co.

    The person that used to do our yard had not shown up in several weeks and it was a mess. I called Narrow Lane. They provided service immediately--within half an hour. Both the response time and quality were excellent. A few days later we got an estimate for continuing the service. We are hiring them. Great company!-- especially if you have a busy life and need highly professional service.

    What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

    1. Verify Trade License
      HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
    2. Verify Insurance
      As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
    3. Verification of State Business Filings
      For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
    4. Criminal Records Search
      HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
    5. Sex Offender Search
      We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
    6. Bankruptcy Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
    7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
    8. Liens Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
    9. Identity Verification (SSN)
      HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
    10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
